Roxy Music, "Out of the Blue"

If this blog post were a Facebook status update, it would read: Pop Argot is overwhelmed by what electric violin can do in a rock context.

But to elaborate, I'm also overwhelmed by the aptitude of everyone else onboard the space shuttle Roxy Music - especially the oboe player, and how often do I get to say that? - on "Out of the Blue." Even if I think Bryan Ferry's sartorial reputation is rather overstated, at least if this clip is evidence.
